Description:

The bow and the stern, including the bathing platform are completely made of stainless steel. All bollards and various cover parts are also made of stainless steel.
The yacht has two steering positions, an inside and outside steering position.

The hull, the electrical system, the water system and the windows are built according to Germanischer Lloyd Norm.

To date we have no corrosion problems, inside and out. The inside of the fuselage was insulated with 40 mm Styrodur (non-flammable).

The engine room was insulated with 40 mm glass wool sound. The generator was isolated extra sound.

The entire floor at the ship is removable.

The owners couple sailed over 76000 nm in 15 years, including around the world. The yacht could be sailed in two situations without any problems.

It is a fast, safe, world-cruising yacht, made of steel for safety reasons and in excellent condition and first-hand.
It conveys very good sailing characteristics with each course. It sails very little in the wind and is therefore comfortable to sail.

The ship is fully equipped for a world trip, equipped with worldwide maps.
The yacht is suitably safe in the areas of Patagonia or the North West Passage
to travel.
